about
Hans Bronsart von Schellendorff (February 11, 1830–November 3, 1913) was a classical musician and composer who studied under Franz Liszt. Bronsart von Schellendorff (also called Bronsart was born into a Prussian military family, and educated at Berlin University. He studied piano with Adolph Jullack. He went to Weimar in 1853 where he met Liszt and became familiar with all the musicians in Liszt's circle at the time, including Hector Berlioz and Johannes Brahms. It is a measure of his close relationship with Liszt that it was he who played the solo part in the first Weimar performance of Liszt's second piano concerto, with the composer conducting. When the concerto was published, Liszt dedicated it to Bronsart. After having trained for several years with Liszt, he worked as a conductor in Leipzig and Berlin, and then took the post of general manager of the royal theatre in Hanover from 1867 to 1887. He held a similar post in Weimar from 1887 until his retirement in 1895. He met his second wife Ingeborg Starck (1840–1913), also a composer, in Weimar. They married in 1861.[2] Bronsart von Schellendorff died in Munich in 1913. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
